La Liga (Spanish League) Prediction Thread 2023/24

[Swordsoffreedom]

Come on mate, it's just a friendly match even though they won there but in this case the majority of Madrid players are young players but indeed when you see it it's like a mini elclasico because it seems that Barcelona really intends even with the obstacles and hard tackles there.
This doesn't determine anything really and when I say Madrid's defense can actually be said to be strong but there is still a need for adjustments there because until now Rudiger and Tchouameni in midfield are also still in the adaptation stage and don't have a strong chemistry there.

It's okay even if it's a friendly match because actually both teams want to win. Barcelona and Real Madrid both played their best players and they played like El Clasico in a competition, but the match stats are good for Barcelona.
Barcelona's two wins over Real Madrid in Laliga and friendly match will certainly give Real Madrid a little impression that they must be ready and wary of Barcelona this season. Barcelona can play well and their attackers are very dangerous, so this will definitely be one of the things that will have a positive impact on the competition this season.

In this case, there are indeed several players who are being tested, such as the young Madrid players without Benzema there and some of the chemistry that Barcelona does.
Actually it's not a problem there during a friendly match but I just want to emphasize that this is not a reference.
Apart from the two clubs playing very well there, we are also aware that this is only a friendship and to assess the readiness of the two teams but in this case it is clearly not a reference to who will win for the league title there because this is only as proof and reference that Barcelona are not those who play in the league. the start of the season last year.

Winning friendly matches is not important. In these matches, the coach identifies the weaknesses of his team. Also, friendly matches are important to improve understanding between team players. The Real Madrid team lost against Barcelona, ​​that is not to say that they are weak. As a result of this defeat, they realized their weaknesses and their performance will be stronger in the upcoming matches.

Of course, I'm also not saying that as a good reference for judging who will win the title this season. But since we can see the improvement in form that Barcelona are experiencing, then we have to think that Real Madrid will be wary of that possibility this season.

Barcelona's massive overhaul of their team this season confirms that they are very enthusiastic about winning the title. I think Xavi knows what he's going to do for barcelona, ​​so all the players they've brought in is the reason for the need for extra strength there. I'm happy Dembele has finally signed, and also Raphinha wants to join so Barcelona have really had quality in right wingers. Lewandowski and Aubameyang are quite good on the strikers, Ferran Torres can also help on the left wing so I think Barcelona's attacking quality has been very dangerous this season.

Barcelona wants to get ride of his salary that will continue to be bigger each year in addition to the money that they owes him when they cut his wage. So removing that charge + getting some €60-80m for the transfer will be beneficial for the club in the short - medium term. Let's call it a sacrifice that will impact de Jong more than Barcelona and he is forced to accept it. When we said that Barca suffered a bad management for years

It looks like De Jong doesn't care what Barcelona wants - he takes care of himself. And rightly so 

Regardless, he really can't make decisions, I think and sometimes tends to be fickle, especially in this transfer window.
He wanted to be at Barcelona after that decided he wanted to move to Manchester United despite the scheme and the drama for quite a long time but after that there were some who said that he only wanted to leave when there was an offer from Bayern.
Even though he is selfish, he can't make his own decisions because he still has a lot of doubts about doing it there.

At least I hope there are three names of teams that are ready to compete at the top of the standings if the other teams are not able to do that. Real Madrid, Barcelona and Atletico Madrid are these three teams. Indeed, from year to year only these three teams have always been residents of the top. I'm also a little hesitant for other teams to join them in the competition. Their movement in the transfer market is so minimal.

I do believe that they will have to manage something much better, doesn't mean that it would be those three at the top, but those three are the ones that spent the most money on players, meaning that they have to be at the top three or they have spent that money on nothing at all.

Why would it make sense for them to be expensive teams with a ton of costs to run, and then just be 6th or something, that would be terrible for their finances and it would cause them to drop further if they keep it up. Barcelona had a horrible half a year just because of financial stuff and bad results, so they need to start getting those good results if they do not want to be there again.

Frankie De jong has to make a decision right now, it’s clear he is passionate about FC Barcelona and Wants to say but the problem is he still needs all the money he can get and won’t want to get a pay cut, personally I would say the La liga should look into their laws and try to adjust it. Such laws has seen the league loss quality place that didn’t initially want to leave the club but the players and the teams didn’t have an option.

[Shasha80]

Barcelona should be able to pay de Jong. After all, they spent almost €150m in this transfer market. If they can afford that type of money they should also be able to afford to pay one player. What I understand is that if they are so broke, then they should not have bought players this season. Because they've already spent a lot of money on players, they should not be thinking about selling an important class right now. Because I really don’t see them selling de Jong and the outcome actually being favorable at all.

They can actually pay there but when in this case we have to distinguish which ones can't pay and which ones don't want to pay because indeed if you look at the financial condition with some fairly large purchases, I think the debt of tens of millions is nothing.
But they are so holding back on it because they really don't want to pay now and pass this on to anyone who wants to buy De Jong.

By looking at the purchases of players that Barcelona made in the year the costs were very large, Barcelona should indeed be able to pay off the debt
to De Jong, but it seems that Barcelona has no intention of paying off the debt to De Jong. Barcelona wants to pass the debt on to the teams that will
buy De Jong, so far Man United are the most serious about getting De Jong. Initially Man United did not want to be involved in Barcelona's debt problem
to De Jong, but because De Jong doesn't want to move if Barcelona haven't paid off the debt. Finally, it is reported that Man United will be prepared to
give De Jong a big salary and also ready to pay off Barcelona's debt to De Jong.

This step was taken by Man United to be able to get De Jong as soon as possible, the problem is that De Jong has a desire to play in the Champions League,
maybe this is another obstacle for De Jong's move to Man United. The situation is getting more complicated, when rumors emerged that Chelsea were
trying to hijack De Jong's transfer to Man United. If it is true that Chelsea want De Jong, Chelsea should have a better chance of getting De Jong,
because Chelsea play in the Champions League. It is increasingly interesting to follow De Jong's future developments, we'll soon see what it's like in the end.

[Falconer]

Many did not think that Barcelona would buy so many players in the midst of the financial crisis they were facing.
Joan Laporta is the man behind it all, she's managed to unlock liquidity so that money can flow into Barcelona's accounts and make big purchases, slowly but surely.

Laporta strongly supports Xavi's wishes regarding new players, it is stated in Xavi's contract when Laporta brought him home from Al Sadd. So it is true that Laporta is eager to pamper Xavi about overhauling his team to compete in Laliga and the Champions League this season.

whether they can win the La Liga title or the Champions League trophy, all the hills are still very far away for us to know.

All the players that Barcelona have signed this season are of sufficient quality, so even if the hill is high there is a chance they can surpass it. Their defense looks strong, the midfield is well organised, and most importantly they have a good striker up front. I'm curious about all the possibilities and speculations about Barcelona's good form, so I'll definitely be waiting for the official El Clasico of the season.

Such laws has seen the league loss quality place that didn’t initially want to leave the club but the players and the teams didn’t have an option.

Frenkie de Jong must immediately determine two difficult choices. Namely to stay at Barcelona with the consequences of a pay cut. Or agree to Manchester United's offer to join a club that is currently in a slump. According to the news Barcelona are very insistent on selling him, but various other issues are also developing regarding De Jong's current situation. However, it is also reported that Barcelona have not paid the Dutch man's salary debt of 16 million pounds.

On the other hand, the Blaugrana management has confirmed that Barca will not pay the salary debt if De Jong leaves the Camp Nou. Therefore, it is felt that Frenkie de Jong is still waiting for his debt to be paid in advance by Barcelona before lifting his suitcase from Camp Nou considering that a salary of 16 million pounds is not a small amount.

All can happen only time can answer Lewandoski's performance in Barcelona. This pre-season performance has not been able to describe Lewandoski's adaptability with Barcelona. They're going to go through a long season maybe we'll see there. Barcelona is having a collective game so it will help Lewandoski to play better. In Lewandoski's pre-season I thought it was pretty good, sometimes he was selfish but it was still in a reasonable stage. We'll see the season go on so let's see what's going to happen.

After spending big amounts in transfers and having some quality players into their team still it's not all okay for Barcelona because real test is going to start in coming days can these big names change fortune of Barcelona and can they adapt this all easily and have their desired results a big question mark which is going to be key for them in coming days.

Because if they fail to have their required results then surely it's going to be disaster for them with still debit having impact on their performance and better results, and they will fail to achieve all positive things mean they are more down and terrible things are hunting them.

With some early matches Robert Lewandowski fail to give any positive impression even these were only friendly matches but still his transfer is hanging in balance can he perform in regular season or this is going to be the worst for these both parties.

With some early matches Robert Lewandowski fail to give any positive impression even these were only friendly matches but still his transfer is hanging in balance can he perform in regular season or this is going to be the worst for these both parties.

I'm sure Barcelona will do their best to register all their new players. There are several options they are considering including releasing some players permanently or loaning them out to other teams. Termination of the contract can also be a last option if the first two options fail so that Barcelona can register their players for this season.

As for Lewandowski, he needs an adjustment and luck for the first goal. He was a very prolific goalscorer for several seasons and it was hard to believe he would fail at Barcelona. The impression is not good because he did not score in the first few games of pre-season, did not determine his fate this season.

[BitcoinAccepted]

Now that they have Lewandovsky on their team, that can make a big difference. He is very experienced and has already won everything with Bayern Munich and has been one of the best strikers in the world in recent years. In fact, he doesn't fit at all with Barcelona because they are no longer a world team. but well, in the competition Real Madrid is demonstrably better, considering last season's result there is hope for Barcelona. I think Barcelona should win especially from the lesser teams at the bottom, Real Madrid don't miss a lot and score on it. barcelona had a lot of trouble with low-ranking teams.

[CryptoPanda]

They ( Manchester United ) shouldn't faze around when looking for alternatives, Manchester United needs quality in the middle of the park ( Midfield ) He may have wanted to make the switch but Manchester United are currently involved in European League.
 News have emerged about Ruben Nerves been a back up plan and alternative to Frankie De Jong, why the delay with the movement ? He
( Ruben Nerves ) has expressed he's desires to play with some Manchester United player's once again he knew from the National Team ( Portugal ).As far as I know, Frankie De Jong to Manchester United will not happen this season.

I really don't understand why Manchester United are wasting so much time going around Frankie De Jong deal, there are many controversies and complications around the deal. They can always get other alternatives, Ruben Nerves is also a good back up in case the deal for De Jong doesn't fall through but in my opinion I think United should find other alternatives and forget the De Jong.

With the reading of all situations and as things are happening here mostly peoples believe De Jong is surely selfish person even he is right in his views but now if he wants to stay here at Barcelona then surely he needs to understand this all and try to fix issue because right now Barcelona is not in good position to give him salary which was added at the time of his transfer, and they are trying to sell him for their own sack then, and he wants to stay here then surely he needs to adjust and talk with them about their requirements and then settle this issue.

Manchester United and Bayern Munich both are financially strong and can give him desired salary, but he wants to stay here without any cut is not going to sort out this all in positive way for both parties.

Getting the right player that suits your style of play and tactics won't be a bad idea. Erik Ten Hag has made him the most suitable player that fits into that position.
He should be back, when he gets what he desires and gives positive results, then all Manchester United fans will be delighted. I'm at with the player but the delay is Al I'm about... Getting a second option would bloster their Midfield as relying on Fred and Tomany won't bring results. I hope for the best at Manchester United,if you compare them Midfield, they are one of the poorest sides last season.

Lewandowski and Aubameyang are quite good on the strikers, Ferran Torres can also help on the left wing so I think Barcelona's attacking quality has been very dangerous this season.

In this case it is clear that Madrid will definitely be wary of Barcelona's current revival, especially with the major overhaul in their attack line.

Actually this is still a good thing because it will be very fierce in terms of competition if this can happen, especially in this case Barcelona are risking their life and death this season.
I would not be surprised if this season La Liga will be competitive again after last season it was very difficult for other clubs to catch Madrid in points.

They can always get other alternatives, Ruben Nerves is also a good back up in case the deal for De Jong doesn't fall through but in my opinion I think United should find other alternatives and forget the De Jong.

It could be said that Ten Hag's interest in De Jong was so high that they continued to carry out negotiations even though in this case it ended in vain.
Actually there are several players who have been linked. Currently the transfer season is only a few weeks away for them, it would be better for them to focus on finding alternatives rather than making this more complicated because this will also affect the team.

[ShowOff]

Actually this is still a good thing because it will be very fierce in terms of competition if this can happen, especially in this case Barcelona are risking their life and death this season.
I would not be surprised if this season La Liga will be competitive again after last season it was very difficult for other clubs to catch Madrid in points.

The Laliga president has pushed Barcelona to make big purchases after Messi and Ronaldo left Laliga. He probably knew that Laliga wouldn't attract much interest without the intense rivalry between Madrid and Barcelona, ​​so now it looks like his wish has come true.

Barcelona spend a lot of money just to overhaul its players. They seem more ready to challenge for the title this season after the arrival of 5 new players. But of course there is no guarantee for them because it takes effort and consistency throughout the season to achieve it.

[lalabotax]

Tbh, Sevilla or Real Betis can't win the laliga this season, the top three teams are much stronger than they are, giving them absolutely no chance of being laliga champions. Having said that, i think Barcelona are now strong enough to compete for the laliga title again, it was an easy ride for Real Madrid last season, but it'll not be so this season, with the acquisition of Lewandowski, Kounde, Raphinha, etc, Barcelona are ready to challenge for the title and prolly even go far in the CL.

Sevilla and Real Betis may have a small chance to win La Liga, but we can't judge they have no chance at all. Nothing is impossible in a football competition, a smaller club can win if they can play consistently and play with confidence. However, ideally, Barcelona, Real Madrid, and Atletico should be the favorite candidates to win the La Liga title. Especially Barcelona, they have spent a lot of money to improve their squad this season. If they failed to win a title, they will be ashamed. So, although Barcelona becomes the strongest candidate to win the title, they are under big pressure right now.

Such laws has seen the league loss quality place that didn’t initially want to leave the club but the players and the teams didn’t have an option.

Looking at the whole thing, I do not think De Jong should be forced to take a pay cut rather he should be treated with respect seeing that the situation of Barcelona today has nothing to do with his contract. De Jong has openly declared his intention to remain in Barcelona so I think he should not be forced to accept a pay cut that was not included in his contract rather an agreement should be made between Barcelona and De Jong so that they will know if he will accept the compulsory pay cut or he will be sold to another club.

[snipie]

Now that they have Lewandovsky on their team, that can make a big difference. He is very experienced and has already won everything with Bayern Munich and has been one of the best strikers in the world in recent years.

I think Barcelona should win especially from the lesser teams at the bottom, Real Madrid don't miss a lot and score on it. barcelona had a lot of trouble with low-ranking teams.

I believe Barcelona will win La Liga title this season. The fluctuating performance last season won't be seen this season imo especially after the restructuration of the team.
Real Madrid in the other hand shouldn't miss easy opportunities since every point counts but it is hard to be applied tho.. I don't think low ranking teams will be as effective as previously, instead top teams will make the difference.
